After deciding to give up, I became popular

She even felt like she could hear his breathing, and also heard him say—

"What do you want to do?"

His tone was very stern, so she opened her eyes.

What she saw was a completely strange man, short and sleazy, holding a mop, but inexplicably reaching out towards her.

Of course, her junior, Kanade, was also there, but he was standing to the side, grabbing the man's hand, with an unkind expression.

Finally, she woke up a bit and quickly understood what was happening, so she showed a look of disgust and stood behind Kanade Natsukawa.

"Are you okay, senpai?" Kanade Natsukawa glanced at her.

Utaha Kasumigaoka shook her head and said, "Yes, he hasn't touched me yet."

Although she had almost fallen asleep, she was still aware of her surroundings. She originally thought it was her junior approaching, but it turned out to be a disgusting piece of trash...

So the disgust in her eyes became even more undisguised.

Why are there scumbags like this everywhere?

Luckily, her junior stepped in, otherwise she would have felt disgusted for a long time.

Seeing that senpai was indeed okay, Kanade Natsukawa had time to deal with the guy in front of him.

"Phone, unlock it and hand it over. I'll check it, and you can leave if everything is fine."

His tone was unforgiving. In fact, he was extremely disgusted with this kind of scum, and even felt that they were just mere rice weevils, whose only purpose in the world was to make rice prices more expensive.

The sleazy man's pupils shrank slightly when he heard this, then he lowered his head and said with a grin, "I, I just wanted to remind her that sleeping here is not good, she, she might catch a cold..."

"Heh, you think I didn't see? Two choices: one, I call the police and let them investigate you; two, I investigate you." Kanade Natsukawa didn't waste any words with him, and said directly, "Choose for yourself."

The sleazy man obviously panicked and even started struggling, but the more he struggled, the more force Kanade Natsukawa used. Eventually, he couldn't bear the pain and begged for mercy, "I'll hand it over, I'll hand it over, I'll give it to you right away..."

He was originally carefree, thinking that he could just fool around like usual, but he didn't expect that he couldn't deceive this guy who looked like a high school student. The key was that he was so strong! And so tall! What the hell, how can high school students grow up like this these days? What a jinx!

He admitted defeat this time, but it didn't matter. At most, some of his treasures would be gone. There were plenty of opportunities to take偷拍, as long as he didn't get caught...

Kanade Natsukawa didn't care what the other party was thinking. When he took the phone, he twisted the other party's hand a little harder, keeping him in a painful but unable to exert force position. Only then did he start checking the other party's photo album.

Then, the more he looked, the more shocked he became, and the more undisguisedly hateful expression appeared on his face.

Damn, calling him a rice weevil is an understatement, he's clearly a born畜生!

He couldn't bear it anymore, so he took out his phone to take a photo as evidence, then simply put the phone away, and directly punched the other party in the stomach.

With a "bang", the other party instantly lost the ability to resist, clutching his stomach and kneeling on the ground, constantly wailing.

"It seems I didn't wrong you." He also spat casually, as if disgusted, and then unceremoniously said to Utaha Kasumigaoka behind him, "Senpai, call the police."

He didn't want to watch anymore, and felt it was better to call the police to handle it. Besides, he had kept the evidence, so he wasn't worried about the other party being stubborn. Of course, the most important thing was that although he felt good after that punch, he wasn't completely satisfied. Only by confirming that the other party would be miserable in the future could he truly rest assured.

Utaha Kasumigaoka, who was originally staring at the sleazy man with a disgusted expression, gradually had her gaze attracted by her "violent" junior.

What's going on? So my junior also has such a rough side? She thought he was always the gentle type!

But she didn't hate this personality at all, and even felt more at ease!

"Yes, I've already called the police." Utaha Kasumigaoka couldn't help but nod, then slowly leaned over and inappropriately reached out to touch his arm.

"??? Senpai, what are you doing?" Kanade Natsukawa was almost dumbfounded. What's going on? Why are you touching me?

If you want to tease someone, at least find a more appropriate time, right?

"No, I'm just touching. My junior doesn't look very strong, but he's so powerful..." Utaha Kasumigaoka was still enjoying it, touching here and pinching there, feeling the strength of his muscles, and then increasingly feeling that boys are indeed very different.

But it seems that junior is indeed stronger? She doesn't really understand, but feels that perhaps experiencing it firsthand will give her a better understanding of him...

"No, no, no, I'm already considered quite strong." Kanade Natsukawa rolled his eyes. He wasn't boasting, but he could feel it by comparing himself to the other students in swimming class. His body was indeed much stronger. Although he was a bit less "MAN" compared to those sports students who spent all day sweating in sports clubs, this kind of physique was just right for ordinary people.

After all, excessive fitness attracts the same sex.

"Yes, yes, yes, I believe everything you say." Utaha Kasumigaoka said perfunctorily. She couldn't feel it completely, so who would understand what you're saying?

"╮(╯▽╰)╭" Kanade Natsukawa had to shrug his shoulders, feeling deeply helpless.

The two of them were chatting as if no one else was around, completely ignoring the feelings of the man kneeling on the ground. In fact, the other party didn't need to feel anything anymore. As soon as they heard there was a case, the police rushed out and arrived very quickly, in a classic two-person team.

After briefly asking about what happened, and Kanade Natsukawa presented the evidence, the police quickly confirmed everything. Seeing the guy kneeling on the ground, they didn't even verbally educate Kanade Natsukawa not to be so violent, and even praised him—well done, very courageous, and then took the dejected rice weevil back to the police station to report.

They originally wanted to invite Kanade Natsukawa back to the police station to make a statement, and even offered to send him a thank-you letter, but Kanade Natsukawa refused.

He doesn't like to be in the limelight, at least in this aspect.

"Junior, you were very majestic today. As a knight, I can give you a score of 10!" Utaha Kasumigaoka gently poked Kanade Natsukawa's waist, her eyes full of unconcealable affection.

Hero saves beauty, although the plot is cliché, she just likes it. As the person involved in the romantic event, how could she have any other feelings?

She was extremely happy in her heart.

"Oh? That's really rare, to actually get 10 points from you." Kanade Natsukawa looked a bit indifferent.

In fact, he was also quite happy, but mainly because he had personally punished a piece of trash.

"But you have to continue to work hard. There's still a difference of 90 points from a perfect score." Senpai continued to look at him with a smile.

So Kanade Natsukawa immediately had a black line on his face. So it's actually out of 100? But thinking that the person giving the score was Utaha Kasumigaoka, he felt that it didn't seem so outrageous, so he stopped dwelling on the topic and reminded her, "It's getting late, let's go back quickly, I'm afraid we'll miss the last train later."

"It's okay, I've already checked, the last train is in two hours, we can go have dinner first before going back. I'm a bit hungry too..." Utaha Kasumigaoka shook her head.

She did consume a lot of energy before, and now she's very awake, but that doesn't mean she has enough energy. She just wants to replenish something quickly.

"That's fine too..." Kanade Natsukawa had no more objections. It was the same to him where he ate, as long as he didn't run into a坑人的店.

He wasn't very familiar with this area either, so he simply took out his phone to check if there were any restaurants worth going to nearby.

Utaha Kasumigaoka quietly leaned over to look with him.

"What about your own phone? Don't tell me you're too lazy to take it out?" Kanade Natsukawa rolled his eyes at her.

"It's almost out of battery, I'm saving power." Utaha Kasumigaoka lied without hesitation. In fact, she hadn't used her phone much at all, and the battery was at least 3 times or even 2 times that of Kanade Natsukawa's.

"..." Kanade Natsukawa didn't say anything more, and focused on searching for restaurants worth trying.

Before long, the two of them tacitly looked at a family restaurant at the same time.

"Let's go to this one, the reviews look very good, we shouldn't step on a雷." Pointing to the picture on the screen, Kanade Natsukawa suggested.

Utaha Kasumigaoka also nodded, "Let's go to this one, it's very close."

So the two of them looked at each other.

"..."

"..."

Okay, as expected, boys and girls always have different viewpoints, but why does this scene seem to be reversed?

Without saying much, the two of them confirmed their belongings and set off according to the map.

At this time, Kanade Natsukawa suddenly remembered that his bucket of popcorn that he hadn't eaten much, and the almost untouched cola were still in the movie theater. He was in a hurry to leave and completely forgot to bring them out.

"Oh, what a pity, I didn't bring out the popcorn and cola, I haven't even drunk it yet." Kanade Natsukawa looked regretful.

"Eh? You haven't drunk it yet?" Utaha Kasumigaoka asked in surprise, she also just remembered that she had done something to it.

Kanade Natsukawa turned his head and gently glanced at her, then nodded, "I guess so, I only drank one or two sips..."

He remembered that he seemed to have taken a sip or two to divert his attention and calm his brain, and probably drank it at that time.

So it's cola... As expected, something was done to it... But in his situation at the time, he had no time to think about anything wrong, and now he doesn't feel anything wrong when he recalls it.

The taste... is fine, it's still the original taste. Senpai shouldn't have had time to add mustard or anything, and he didn't even taste anything wrong with the popcorn.

So what exactly did she do...

"..." Utaha Kasumigaoka opened her mouth, but couldn't say anything.

Well, whatever... Even if it's just one or two sips, it should count, right?

Actually, she didn't do anything much, just secretly drank a few sips of his cola while he went to the restroom. She originally wanted to wet the popcorn a little and stuff it back in, but she felt too ashamed and gave up. In fact, that's all she did.

She wanted to wait for him to notice that the cola was a little less, and realize the fact that "they indirectly kissed".

But now that she thinks about it, it seems that junior hasn't realized this at all? Now it seems that it can only affect her!

If she can't see a reaction, she might as well just grab it and take a few sips in front of him.

Ugh... What a loss! If I had known... I would have just maintained the action until junior came back!

Looking at Kanade Natsukawa's expressionless face, Utaha Kasumigaoka thought that he hadn't noticed at all. In fact, Kanade Natsukawa had already started brainstorming, but he always hid it well, making it not so easy for people to notice.

208. I will be一心一意噢

When they came out of the movie theater, the sky had already turned pitch black, and the existing lampposts on the roadside had already begun their daily light and heat emission.

After all, Tokyo is a metropolis, and even in a slightly remote area, it still becomes lively at night, but this kind of liveliness is almost entirely provided by the 社畜 who work hard every day and don't get off work on time.

When walking on the road, even without consciously concentrating, you can hear various complaints from various居酒屋, such as—"Recently, my wife's dressing style has suddenly changed, and she has started to dress up. The key is that her phone has also started to be locked..."

"Ah? You snooped on your wife's phone?"

"No, I just happened to find out... Is she cheating, right?"

"Yeah, she should be cheating, right."

"Hey, I knew it... But even if she's really cheating, it's my fault, right? Day after day, I only know how to work...乻..."

"Don't talk nonsense, how could it be your fault."

"Hey, I've been working overtime for free, and I have to accompany clients to play golf on my days off. Recently, I occasionally get off work early, but I don't dare to go home. I can only come out and drink with you like this... So what am I working for..."

"Are you okay? Ah, cheer up—excuse me, another serving of焼酎!"

"Hey..."

It's really heartbreaking to hear, and sad for those who listen——————

Kanade Natsukawa didn't intend to eavesdrop, but he happened to be queuing in front of a takoyaki shop, and the居酒屋 next door happened to be broadcasting such words.

As a fellow man, he had already begun to feel sorry for the other party's experience.

"It's just because he met the wrong person, not all girls are like this..." Utaha Kasumigaoka, who was also standing next to him, spoke first. She obviously heard the社畜's conversation completely.

Standing next to her was the person she loved, yet news completely unfavorable to girls had just reached her ears. How could she possibly remain standing still and indifferent?

“I am absolutely, unequivocally devoted, okay? And think about it, my current royalties alone already far exceed those of most people, so even supporting a family on my income wouldn't be a problem…”

Although saying all this might seem a bit premature, since the opportunity had presented itself, she could at least showcase some of her good points, right?

She stared at him intently, eagerly awaiting his response.

However, Summer River Melody only felt a slight itch in his ear. Senior had once again playfully blown air into his ear, so he shrank his neck and said, "Yes, yes, after all, Senior is—a once-in-a-century beautiful young light novelist."

He had heard this title boasted by her countless times, and he could already recite it from memory.

Kasumigaoka Utaha: “……”

She wanted to hear something more substantial from him, even fantasizing that he would directly say, “Then, Senior, please take care of me from now on, I beg you.” But this was barely acceptable, at least it was praise for her.

While they were talking, it was their turn in line. Considering they were going to a restaurant later, they bought a small portion of takoyaki, only five pieces. They were lucky and didn't have to wait for the next batch; the clerk wrapped up the freshly made ones and handed them over.

“Do you want to eat them now?” Kasumigaoka Utaha licked her lips, the aroma of various snacks wafting around her already stirring her appetite.

“Or should we go to the restaurant first…” Summer River Melody wanted to say that, but seeing Senior's impatient expression, he led her to a slightly more secluded spot.

After opening the takoyaki packaging, he first poked holes in two of the dumplings with chopsticks before handing them to Kasumigaoka Utaha.

“Doing this will help them cool down faster.” He of course still remembered some of her habits, including her sensitive tongue, and promptly reminded her, “But they should still be very hot, so blow on them a little before you eat them.”

Kasumigaoka Utaha looked at him with some surprise, and then the teasing words she had originally intended to say were suddenly swallowed back down.

She knew that he was also very attentive, but she hadn't seen this kind of thoughtfulness in a very, very long time, more of it was due to the politeness of his own personality and—the distance designed after certain situations.

But now it seemed that her efforts had been quite effective, and she felt that they could get along a little more like they used to.
